Patience - Derby G&S Company
6 August 2012 7:30 PM
Buxton Opera House
The 19th International Gilbert & Sullivan Festival
Patience satirises the ‘aesthetic craze’ of the 1870s and ‘80s, when the output of poets, composers, painters and designers of all kinds was indeed prolific — but, some argued, empty and self-indulgent. This artistic movement was so popular, and also so easy to ridicule as a meaningless fad, that it made Patience a big hit. A group of lovesick maidens choose to chase pretentious poet Reginald Bunthorne instead of the Dragoon Guards. Unfortunately Reginald loves Patience, the village milkmaid. Another poet, Archibald Grosvenor appears and much to Reginald’s dismay, all eyes and attention are drawn to him. In true Gilbertian form, all pair off happily, but who will become Bunthorne’s bride?
